I made a decision. My office has opened a position on the DPP project. I will serve as the web developer 25% of the time. My remaining time I will be creating BSC core web systems for all of the studies.

It is nice to have that decision behind me. Several of the offers I got would have fit me well also, so it was a hard choice.

I thank God that he has given me a couple options to go from here regarding my career. I have received two formal offers from good companies. My current employer, the GWU Biostatistics Center wants me to stay and hopefully will provide me a clearer picture of what that would look like very soon (i.e: please tell me tomorrow). Now, unfortunately, I must agonize over a decision. Thank you all for your prayers during this season.

But not always with the answer we would like. I learned this morning that the competitor received the contract to be the coordinating center for TrialNet.

What this means for me: I have no idea at this point what my official termination date will be. I really do not have much to do as the majority of my work was new development, which has been halted. I will be kept on staff for a little while in case there are questions. Right now there are no other positions in my office that relate to my skillset, so I have begun the job search in earnest.

Camille and I are continually reminded of God’s faithfulness, in taking us to Ithaca, then down here to be with all of you. We are confident that His grace will continue to sustain us in this uncertain time.
